Hi!
I am trying to install MediaWiki 1.7.1 on a Windows XP system with Apache 2.2.3,
PHP 5.1.4, but without success:
I have set up:
Apache:
ScriptAlias /php5/ "C:/PRGS/PHP5/"
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php5/php-cgi.exe"
#LoadModule php5_module "C:/Programme/PHP5/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .php4 .php3 .phtml
# populate this for every directory with PHP5 code
Alias /wiki/ "D:/srv/www/mediawiki/"
<Directory "D:/srv/www/mediawiki">
SetEnv PHPRC "C:/PRGS/PHP5"
Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride none
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Now going to http://localhost/wiki/ tells: "Forbidden: You don't have permission
to access /wiki/ on this server.".
Trying http://localhost/wiki/index.php gives back: "Forbidden: You don't have
permission to access /php5/php-cgi.exe/wiki/index.php on this server.".
Any Idea what is wrong here?
PS: I am bound to use cgi with Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 5.1.4, since trying to load
the PHP-module leads to an Apache crash --- and going back to Apache 2.0.x isn't
an option.
Hi
we have one minor problem on our Wiki. The .png icons for the editing
buttons are not showing, e.g.
http://www.brahmakumaris.info/w/index.php?
title=Advance_party&action=edit
Could anyone tell me where I can edit these strings?
the /wiki/skins/common/images folder is present.
It and all the icons are chmoded 755.
I cant see or find anything in localsettings that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance.
hi,
would it be possible to accept a iso 8601 based date/time format as
standard format of mediawiki texts and convert it to user specific
output according to users preferences?
currently this functionality seems somehow ok with english formats,
but does not help the majority of the population on this planet ;)

Hi,
Use Teleport to fetch a local copy of your site, or any similar program.
Now make a PDF from it :)

Hello to all,
i've a problem with making an offline copy of my own local wiki.
The following szenario:
All the admin-related stuff and also the whole documentation of our
infrastructure is stored on a webserver. So the document to restore
the webserver if it crashes is located on the same webserver.... so
therefore i need an offline copy of my local wiki. (I know this is
not the perfect solution but there is a backup from the wiki - but i
need a simple way to have the important documents stored on my local
computer).
I've searched the web and found some solutions:
o Script 'dumpHtml.php in the 'maintenance'-Folder:
The script works and stores all the Wiki-Sites as static HTML-pages
in a given folder ('php dumpHtml.php -d /my/folder/')
BUT
the images are lost if you copy the directory to your local pc (in
apache) and the relative links inside the pages are broken (why is
there '../../' in front of all links). What is the intension of this
script? Am i doing something wrong?
Links:
- http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/maintenance/
dumpHTML.php?view=markup
o Serveral Alternative Parsers:
See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Alternative_parsers for more
Information.
I tried the HTML2FPDF and Mediawiki Article (http://
meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/HTML2FPDF_and_Mediawiki) but i did not get it
working. Also it's not good that you habe to change some mainfiles
from the mediawiki installation.
The other projects are imho not 'ready' or the intension is something
different.
o wget to mirror the wiki-Site
I also tried mirroring the wiki with 'wget -m http://mydomain.com/
mywikidirectory/' (i also tried the url http://mydomain.com/
mywikidirectory/index.php/MainSite) but it is not only mirroring the
wiki. It's also mirroring the whole site at 'http://mydomain.com/'.
Why? Can i customize the wget command that it is only mirroring sites
from 'http://mydomain.com/mywikidirectory/'?
Are there any other solutions or suggestions? I think there is a need
for such a offline copy because i found many questions for a tool
like this. Is there any chance to customize the script dumpHTML.php?
Best regards.

Are there any functions I can use to make a function create a new
article, then redirect to a special page? The Article::insertNewPage
function is marked as private, and won't let me reidrect to a new page
afterwards anyways. Thanks for any help, Shardsofmetal
Hi, after upgrading from 1.5.8 to 1.6.8 the default skin, which is a
custom one, for my wiki stopped working properly. I've set the default
skin back to monobook in LocalSettings.php but this will only affect new
users. Users that already had the 'damaged' skin set as their skin
continue to have it set that way. Is there a sql query that I can run to set monobook as the skin for all users? I tried google, and the list archives and couldn't find an answer to this question. Thanks.

Hello
I was wondering...
If it is difficult to make MediaWiki case-insensitive, would it then be
possible to do those Ugly CamelCapitalisations Of Every Word In A
Sentence? I tried to change in title.php, line 1594, 'ucfirst' to
'ucwords', but that gave some error about wgContLang::En etc...
In which file is the capitalisation dealt with? And - more important -
how to change it?
Thanks,
Sebastiaan Snoeckx
